Popis: The design and implementation of a mobile gamma spectrometry system to in vivo measure the accumulated activity of 131I in whole body and thyroid of patients with thyroid diseases are presented in this work. This system may be used for both pre-therapeutic and post-therapeutic dosimetry calculations. It consists of a detector and a movable support that allows its movement from one place to another.
